WebWord Comment -- What should people be paid for? Their time? Creativity? Productivity? The comments in this recent WebWord posting really got me thinking about this topic.

Results. Value.

People should be paid for the value they provide you.

People should feel authorized to recognize and reward, as it suits them, work that has figured in their emotional or intellectual lives.

Value and deliverables. In a creative process its sometimes easy to get lost in the creativity and forgetting the deliverable.

No climax, no dinero.

People should get paid what they ask for, if you agree to that deal. If they ask to be paid on results, and you accept, that's the deal. If they ask to be paid on their time, not results, and you accept, that's the deal.

If you don't accept, you don't have to pay.

People should be paid for whatever they can sell.

It's a trade. Some people are willing to give away valuable items for 'free' (e.g. friends who always organize dinners and events). Also, it costs more for some people to want to do a thing. We're trading the money for the action.
